After reading one of the reviews on Facebook, I was infuriated with the comment pertaining to donating a portion of the earned tips to a local charity. I have never once seen a charity collection box or been informed that my tips allotted to the employees were instead going toward “said charities”. If I decide to donate my money to a charity, I will voluntarily do so. When I am tipping due to good service, my money should go directly to the employee who has exceeded great customer service. This just shows that the claim that they are donating to charity is false. This is a completely inappropriate statement to give to your customers, manipulating customers into thinking you are donating the money you are likely actually pocketing to local charities. Disgusting. I have also witnessed inappropriate workplace behavior demonstrated by the female owner, but that’s a different rant. Thank you Eron coffee house for showing me what business in Saskatoon not to support. Thoroughly not impressed. p.s. I would not be surprised if you guys do not reply to my review as you ignored the one on facebook. This just makes my claim more valid in that you guys are lying about the distribution of your tips. Maybe consider responding to negative reviews as well, not only the positive. That is what good customer...
Read moreLattes are almost perfect temperature when you get them but that means the cool quite quickly. (And I often order half syrup) Rewards card for food and drink separately (10th free) They change up the art hanging on the walls regularly and all of it is for sale. Lots of space to sit (and many different types of seats) but it still gets very full sometimes! (Usually) friendly staff. Some have accents that may be difficult for some people to understand. I have gotten conflicting results on the same drink order (mystic margarita), and death glares and sass a couple times. Coffee quality is great and consistent. Quick service. Stay in mugs or to go cups available. Free ice water always. Can be pretty loud sometimes and once or twice a local singer will come in without any real notice for customers... Clean tables, floor can get pretty dirty (but I’ve really never minded), bathrooms are a whole nother story! (Women’s) Often kind of under a little bit of construction, 2 stalls, cleanliness very inconsistent. Board games available but usually missing pieces (not even a full set of cards) Free WIFI!
TLDR: nice little place to go for coffee with a friend. Don’t judge it too hard (good or bad!) the first time you go. 3(.5) stars for...
Read moreFor transparency I am a regular at this place and go probably twice a week. I love their espresso drinks and it’s a wonderful little spot to grab a drink to go or sit down and eat. I love their baking, I always miss the coconut buns because they go so fast but they are amazing! I adore the staff, always friendly and professional. The one thing I would caution people on (as someone that used to work as a barista and understands how people can be about this) is that sometimes if they are busy the orders take a bit longer. There is only one toaster oven so if there are multiple flatbreads ahead of yours it can take a while and if they are busy drinks can take a while as well - the longest I’ve waited is probably 15mins for just a drink only because they were so busy. This was not an issue for me but if you’re in a hurry and they’re busy just be aware! I will always suggest this place as they have my favorite espresso in the city and the owners/staff are lovely! Definitely...
